i'm dumb and started with the longest book in the pile but it was very good. also pretty funny for the first physical book i've read in a long time (as opposed to ebooks) to be heavily about the nature of books as objects #MarchStash

binghe is getting sooo good at honesty, proud of him <3 #HallmarkRead25

this is such canonical bingqiu flirting lol they're intolerable #HallmarkRead25

As he leans in, Shen Yuan playfully lifts the plushie to intercept. Luo Binghe pouts, at first, but, holding Shen Yuan’s gaze, he doubles down on showing the sheep with little hen-peck kisses. Shen Yuan goes redder.

i read that series of three books in five days. and they were five days when i had A LOT GOING ON or it might have been less. absolutely devoured them and kept the library books for all of the remaining time so i could reread parts. and bought physical copies. SO YEAH I LIKED THE BOOKS...

since I've been reading a lot of romance novels lately and famously hate star ratings, I invented this rating scale to quantify what matters to ME in a romance novel

romance novel rating scale:

prose?
truly bad / fine / notably good

plot?
actively pissed me off / fine

relationship conflict?
none OR pissed me off / adequate / agony

did i like the MC? (or character A if dual POV)
no / yeah / i am in love with them

did i like the love interest? (or character B if dual POV)
no / yeah / i am in love with them

did i look forward to scenes where they interacted?
no / yes / agony

did i get butterflies at the first kiss?
no / yes / agony

did i think about them while not reading?
no / yes / agony

average (enjoyable) romance novel: 8 points
max score: 15 points

sorry to skip ahead but i was thinking about this line from the hallmark fic sequel that always makes me laugh so much, and i think this really speaks to a difference btwn AU bingyuan and canon bingqiu, which is: in canon, sqq is projecting misogyny onto himself much harder

Screenshot of this excerpt with the last line highlighted: "The point is! For someone as experienced as Luo Binghe… well, it’d make sense if he’d prefer someone with an equal amount of experience. But, it shouldn’t be too much of a problem, right? Women don’t really do anything during sex, and everyone still has a good time."

i think i'll start with a gluten-free cake recipe because it's a lot easier to adapt a recipe to be sugar-free and dairy-free than gluten-free, and just start trying out substitutions... i was also looking at my culinary school notes because we did a whole thing on writing cake recipes

5. Mountain Wine by Sath word count: 5k rating: E this is one of those fics that feels like a lost extra, so charming and funny and ic <3 #DecRecs archiveofourown.org/works/17736020

Mountain Wine by Sath

Summary: Shen Qingqiu felt like a chill wind was blowing down his robes. No matter how many plot holes he filled or improvements he made to the story, nothing could save him forever from the stallion novel’s shit foundation. He remembered this storyline.

It was when Airplane Shooting Towards the Sky reached peak laziness.
